WATERTOWN, NY — In compliance with Governor Andrew Cuomo’s Executive Order No. 202.4, non- essential employees of the City of Watertown will remain home starting tomorrow, Wednesday, March 18, 2020 until further notice.
Police, Fire, Water Treatment, Sewage Treatment, Refuse, Bus, and Paratransit
services will continue as normal. Water and sewer repairs will be made on an
emergency basis.
City Hall will be closed to the public starting on Wednesday, March 18, 2020.
The Flower Memorial Library and Municipal Arena will remain closed.
All business with City departments must be conducted by telephone or email. A drop-box will be in place next to the City Hall Sterling Street entrance later this week for items that need to be delivered. Until that is in place, the book depository at the Library can be used.
